transliteration

a module to transliterate indian languages.

1. assami
2. bengali/bangla
3. oriya/odia
4. telugu
5. tamil
6. malayalam
7. kannada
8. marathi
9. guzrati
10. hindi
11. punzabi/gurumukhi
12. sanskrit

this module is used in the webextension:

1. firefox addon ztr.

source code eksecution phlo

1. package.json -> main is called/run : ("main": "transliterator.js" , transliterator.js)
2. class transliterator
   1. transliterate_input(input_str,ztr_direction_const=0)
   2. transliterate_dom_node(node_arg, ztr_direction_const=0)
   3. untransliterate_dom_node()

ztr_direction_const values can be :

1. 0 for unicode to ascii510 (american standard code for information interchanze , 5+5=10)
2. 1 for unicode to hscii810 (heXadecimal standard code for information interchanze , 8+8=10=4*4)
3. 2 for ascii510 to hscii810
4. 3 for hscii810 to ascii510

ascii510 : american standard code for information interchange decimal digits : 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 5+5=10 alphabets : A-Z a-z q->k w->v j->z

hscii810 : heksadesiml standard kode for informesn interchenz heksadesiml dizits : 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 L J Q W X F 8+8=10=vnti=4*4 alphabets : abcdefghiHklmopArstuvDTyz

4. npm version patch
5. npm publish

steps to use library

1. define ascii or hscii or code mapping as in ekzample zabc.js in this repository.
2. it is to define a dictionary vith keys as :

1. import library as in your js file:

```js
import transliterator from 'kvz-transliteration';
const input_str = 'हिन्दी विकिपीडिया' ;
let t = new transliterator();

// ascii510 (q->k , w->v , j->z )
// ascii810 (q->A , w->D, j->H, x->T,)

///////// for transliterating zavaskript string input_str, kall as :

// 1. for unicode to ascii510
let transliterated_output_a5 = t.transliterate_input(input_str,0);
// or ve kan kall as : 
let transliterated_output_a5 = t.transliterate_input(input_str) // 0 is default

// 2. for unicode to ascii810
let transliterated_output_a8 = t.transliterate_input(input_str,1)

// 3. for ascii510 to ascii810
let transliterated_output_a8 = t.transliterate_input(input_str,2)

// 4. for ascii810 to ascii510
let transliterated_output_a5 = t.transliterate_input(input_str,3)

///////// 5. for transliterating dom_tree_node kall as :
t.transliterate_dom_node(node_arg, ztr_direction_const);
// ztr_direction_const as in above transliterate_input calls 2nd argument

///////// 6. for untransliterating dom_tree_node kall as :
t.untransliterate_dom_node();

// definition of transliterate_input in libindik-transliteration:transliterator class is as: 
  // transliterate_input(input_str,ztr_direction_const=0) {
  //   switch(ztr_direction_const) {
  //     case 0 : return u_to_a(input_str,false);
         // (u_to_a,false) means unicode to ascii510 (q->k , w->v , j->z )
         // international phonetics alphabets , texttospeech , reader
  //     case 1 : return u_to_a(input_str,true);
         // (u_to_a,true) means unicode to ascii810 (q->A , w->D, j->H, x->T,  )
         // international phonetics alphabets , texttospeech , reader  
  //     case 2 : return a5_to_a8(input_str);
           // ascii510 (q->k , w->v , j->z )
           // ascii810 (q->A , w->D, j->H, x->T,)
  //     case 3 : return a8_to_a5(input_str);
           // ascii510 (q->k , w->v , j->z )
           // ascii810 (q->A , w->D, j->H, x->T,)  
  //   }
  // }
